Indian monsoon, the most prominent of the world’s monsoon systems, which primarily affects India and its surrounding water bodies. It blows from the northeast during cooler months and reverses direction to blow from the southwest during the warmest mont
Kishore, et al., 2014: Solar cycle effects on Indian summer monsoon dynamics. Journal of At- mospheric and Solar, 121, 145-156, doi: 10.1016/j.jastp.2014. 06.012.Ratnam, M.V., Santhi, Y.D., Kishore, P. and Bhaskara, S.V.: 2014, Solar cycle effects on Indian summer monsoon ...
This change reduces the chances of major effects on the early Indian monsoon season. Above-Normal Temperatures Forecast: India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicts above-normal temperatures until May. Both maximum and minimum temperatures expected to be higher than usual across most regions. ...
But unlike the India of 1877, the country has structures to mitigate the effects. State-run granaries exist to release rations when supplies grow tight. Democratic rulers are quick to stop exporting crops in times of hunger. Better technology and more capacity for assessing climate data mean war...
The poleward limits of monsoon systems are often sites of sharp changes in wind direction. InIndia, for example, the monsoon blows from the southwest in July and August, and north of India the winds are from the east. In northern Australia the monsoon arrives from the northwest during Januar...
Summer monsoon (June-September) precipitation is crucial for agricultural activities in India. Extremes during the monsoon season can have deleterious effects on water availability and agriculture in the region. Here, we show that hot and dry extremes during the summer monsoon season significantly ...
Monsoon Wedding: Matrimonio indiano: Regia di Mira Nair. Con Naseeruddin Shah, Lillete Dubey, Shefali Shah, Vijay Raaz. Un padre stressato, una futura sposa con un segreto.
we estimate the contributions of oceanic and terrestrial water vapor sources to two major precipitation seasons in India—the Southwest monsoon and the Northeast monsoon, and their effects on the δ18O in precipitation (δ18Op). We find that the two monsoon seasons have different dominant sources...
On shorter timescales, the amount of rainfall during a summer monsoon may be changed year to year by a variety of factors includingair pollution, according toWorld Monsoons. El Niño in the Pacific oceans can also have effects on the monsoon in India on both the short- and long-terms, ac...
India experienced such a monsoon failure. To study these droughts, the Indian Meteorological Service (IMS) was created. Later, Gilbert Walker, a British mathematician, began to study the effects of monsoons in India looking for patterns in climate data. He became convinced that there was a seaso...
